just found one with the best view

These are perfect. The size of the black tape on the front bumper is the same, so they must fit. I hope the also hav the smoked version or I will paint them black, with a special lightpaint.

I think that you can get them only like this - white but it shouldn't be a problem to paint them

They are selling "aftermarket-bolt-on" tuning parts for most of new cars.
So I think it can be bossible to find those in different colors, but citroen is not
in tuning Top10. Just dont paint them too dark, then they are useless (you
see them only in night).

For short look, I didnt find anything for C4, but these for AUDI A6. 28euros.
Go on parking area to measure the size Very Happy

Too bad that green Croatian 2cv dont have these bumber signals on front too.

Today I went to a shop and a scrapyart to find something wich would fit.

These lights are 3cm or under.

Audi A? series. So the Light Oli suggest are right to fit. And are also available in smoke.
Citroen Saxo
Volvo 66

The best opition is the Audi A? series or the Volvo 66. But when I get the last one I have to paint them, because these are orange. But the Volvo 66 is screwed to the body and the Audi Lights are clicked, (but kit/glue is also possible. Wink

)

The front fenders are back. I'll make some pictures this week. I have to remove the welding and then make them tight and paint them.

I'am visiting/calling some dealers and scrapyarts. Scrapyarts can't give me second hand lights.
The parts at the tuningshop are only the glass, not the fitting. So these are useless.

So I can do 2 things:

1. Get Audi parts and some glasses from the tuningshop in smoked black.

But this will be very expensive.

Or...

2. Get some new lights from the C4 like dule said and have some with bumperlights in the frontbumper.

The C4 lights have a better shape in mine opinion, but aren't available in smoked black.
Spray them black is an option, but is not very safe like Oli said.

Hi!

I have plan to put similar tail lights. I will put brake lights blinking when turning... old fassion US blinkers.

Would you like to see wiring schema? Doesn't matter, I'll show it anyway Wink

Some translations:

Vaihtorele = switching relay
Jarruvalokatkaisijalta = From brake light switch
Vilkkureleeltä = From blinking relay (blinker wire)

You need three relays to do total system. One right side relay (on the diagram) and two left side. And the blinker relay must be electrical (blinking is not based on resistance of the circuit).

I'll give this to my father, I'm so bad with electrical stuff!

Yes, I have the fittings for a Audi A6. And the smoked lights are orderd. Laughing

I think these are the same Oli sugested.

Today I fitted the fenders.

And a old problem is back. New fenders don't fit with a ribble bonnet. My old fenders are fitting nice, but the new one arent't. So I must modify the lamp-bracket or the fenders, to let them fit.

I hoped to be ready at the end of this month, but I think it's not reageble.

(Again sorry for my bad englisch Wink

)

look carefully my latest photoshop, I made quite some small mods.
(one was narrowing head light support, it would be really good on your car)

A wide headligh support with a ripple bonnet look really od.

Do I see it wrong, or do the fenders still need nome more work... You can, even on this dark picture, see the patches... if I were you 'd modify the brackets on the fenders, like you did on you original fenders. Then you can always swap them back the ones with indicators when you need to.

Punky · Posted: Tue May 13, 2008 12:43 am Post subject:

I'am considering to build another headlight support. Because this one doesn't fit with the new fenders. When I'am doing that I also want to narrowing the headlights.
I have a'n old headlight support for the measurments.

The fenders are now blank metal. So the need a paintjob and filler etc. Wink

A new frontlight from Marchal.

I don't now if I like this one more thena the old one (big yellow).

This one looks older, but maybe is too small. I really must lose the indicatots now. Wink
